Chapter 447 - The Real Purpose of a Noble Banque (1/2)

Roland was actually throwing this party to make Andonara and Vivian a little happier.

Both of them were n.o.bles, and for them, frequenting dinner parties was a normal way of life.

Although Roland wasn’t too keen on this kind of banquet, partners thinking of and accommodating each other was a proper thing in itself. And with this banquet, Roland also wanted to promote his new enchantment ability to the world.

Seeing Douglas and Charles coming over, Roland chatted courteously with them before bringing them to the center of the courtyard, where there was a large table with ten pieces of equipment already enchanted.

And there was a large crowd of guests gathered around the table.

All of them were intrigued.

Seeing Roland coming, they made a path for Roland.

Then ten pieces of glowing magical equipment appeared before Douglas’s eyes.

Roland more or less understood the rich players’ thoughts. The equipment not only needed to have good attributes but also needed to look cool on the outside. If the appearance wasn’t cool, then it could only be compensated with radiant effects.

Looking at the ten radiant pieces of equipment, both Douglas and Charles had quite surprised expressions.

That was not to say that the level of appreciation of the two second-generation rich boys was gaudy.

The inclination and the level of appreciation would change with the environment and culture.

In the real world, these ten pieces would be so garish that they could blind people, extremely unfas.h.i.+onable.

But in this world… these lights were all emanating from magic.

Magic represented knowledge, mystery, and extremely advanced productivity.

All phenomena caused by magic were n.o.ble.

Moreover, in a world where most people relied on candles or torches for nighttime lighting, the light of magic simply represented the yearning to tear through the darkness.

So, the neon brilliance that was so unfas.h.i.+onable out in the real world became a symbol of advanced n.o.bility in this world.

The onlookers, natives of this world, were exceptionally fascinated by this light.

Even both Douglas and Charles thought the ten pieces of equipment were simply awesome in this setting!

They swept their eyes over the equipment and smiled at the information that surfaced about the equipment in the system’s view.

Douglas was the owner of these pieces of equipment and seeing that the enchantment was successful and perfect, he was obviously satisfied.

Charles was also satisfied. Since there were already finished products, his equipment could achieve the same effect as well.

After looking at it, Douglas, beaming, placed the equipment into his Backpack one by one; the last thing he stored was the weapon.

A local n.o.ble from Delpon suddenly said, “Would you allow us to try out this sword, Mr. Golden Son?”

They weren’t players, so naturally, they couldn’t see the abilities of the sword in front of them. They just knew that it was definitely a good sword, a very good sword.

Most of the n.o.ble descendants were professionals; after all, the family had plenty of resources and they could become professionals with some care.

But the problem was that the average n.o.ble rarely managed to improve in their professions since it was too arduous and not worth it.

Professional status was merely an embellishment in their aristocratic careers, not a primary att.i.tude toward life.

But that didn’t mean they didn’t have dreams.

The young n.o.bles, too, wanted to be able to stop a hundred people alone and gather hundreds with a single call.

They were just lazy.

However… there were shortcuts.

For example, with full-body epic-level equipment, even a pig could become an elite.

So they were quite curious about this obviously epic and cool set of equipment.

They couldn’t help but want to try it.

“Sure.” Douglas nodded.

In Douglas’s mind, Roland probably had the idea of doing publicity by showing off the equipment in this evening’s banquet. Why else would he put such cool and colorful equipment on the table for people to admire on such an occasion? Since Roland wanted to advertise, he simply cooperated.

As for whether someone would take the equipment and run… hehe!

There were at least ten Golden Sons here, enough to form two small quest teams. Even a Legend might get a headache if they tried it, let alone some low-leveled professionals.

Seeing that Douglas agreed, the n.o.bleman thanked him, then took out a white handkerchief and very solemnly and carefully wiped his hands.

To this small detail, Douglas nodded slightly.

After all, it was his equipment, and it was really polite to do that if they wanted to use it.

The man took the longsword and let out a long breath as he said in an odd tone, “I feel like the sword became an extension of my arm.”

The crowd spread out a bit so that the small n.o.ble could test the sword.

With enough s.p.a.ce, the small n.o.ble drilled a basic military sword technique.

His foundations were solid, and it was obvious that he’d put in some effort. The entire routine took about three minutes to finish.

During this time, the sword lights (neon) crisscrossed and were quite eye-catching.

And while the sword was being brandished, there was no sound at all. Only experts knew that, oftentimes, sound was important information in a battle. By listening to the sound of the sword in the air, one could deduce how fast the opponent’s attack was, the attack route, and so on.

If there was no sound accompanying the attack, the enemy would be very unaccustomed to it. It was like listening to music with earbuds in, only with a left or right sound channel.

This was the enchantment effect of Silent Attack.

It wasn’t very useful in low-level battles, but it was extremely useful in high-level battles or battles in dim environments.
